Where can I pick up wine from purchased wine package?

[cruisenfreak]

We are circling S America on the Island Princess January - March and plan to purchase a wine package on embarkation day(maybe purchase two packages).  If I am reading correctly, we are then to order our bottle(s) in one of the dining rooms.  I see we cannot order one of the bottles in the buffet area.  My problem is we almost never go to the dining room.   Does anyone know if there is another way to order our wine?  Thanks in advance.  Mary Jane

Not sure if can get from Vines.  But you could go to a DR when open and order a couple, take back to cabin, and then bring your choice with you to dine.

Island Princess does not have a Vines and past experience with the wine packages has been you can only get the bottles at a dining venue - that can be the Horizon Court buffet, Sabatini's, main dining rooms, or the Bayou Café.  Keep in mind that the wines available in the different dining venues are not always the same as each other or the main dining rooms and the list may not be as extensive as the main dining room list.

As BabySarge posted you can get wine from the package in any dining venue including at the buffet.  Although based on posts I’ve read it’s slow getting wine delivered to the buffet.

 

After getting wine you can enjoy it anywhere onboard because it was purchased from Princess who added the 18% tip.  You can also take a bottle from a dining venue to your cabin (opened or unopened) to enjoy there.

Thanks for your replies.  I thought I read somewhere that we could not order bottles from the package in the buffet, but I can’t find that now.  If we can...problem solved.

In my experience you can ask for any wine the ship has in stock at any of the DR's.  It might not be handy is all.
